Design of Novel All Organic Complementary Circuits for Wearable Electronics
Abstract
The principal aim of this project is to produce economically organic integrated CMOS circuits on flexible substrates and this can be achieved by fulfilling the following objectives: 1. Optimization of suitable print process parameters for low-cost thin film formulation on large area, lightweight flexible substrates with a view to achieving reproducible material characteristics (electronic, optical and structural properties) for required device performance, 2. Design, fabrication and evaluation of printed all organic discrete TFTs on plastic substrates such as polyethersulfone (PES) films using active layers of phthalocyanine for both n- and p-type channels, 3. Development of models for (i) process tolerant lay-out, (ii) device and circuit simulation in order to study (i) the effects of electric fields on charge transfer, charge separation, and recombination processes and (ii) the role of interfacial states on charge transport and (iii) the dependence of charge transport on supramolecular organisation, molecular aggregation and temperature annealing, 4. Reliability tests for transistor parameter reproducibility, active life and minimization of stress and stress sensitivity, 5. Design, fabrication and test of printed A/D-Converter using analogue organic CMOS.
